The Orange Institution lays no claim to

1t is an ancient order In which under God
every Protestant in the land, directly OF
indirectly, owes his existence. 1t was
founded A. D. 1865 in the Netherlands
by its illustrious patron, William
prince Of Orange, a revered ancestor OF
that William who came victorious from
the waters of the Boyne and compelled
James II to abdicate the throne Of Great
Britain. AT that time Spain was making
crusade against Professionalism In Hol-
land, but under the leadership of the prince of
Orange the Protestants united in taking up
arms against their prosecutors and deter
mined to resist and repell the hateful
cruelty and selfshness of Rome The
Orange order spread into France and
Germany finally reaching England, where
it flourished in great popularity, nurtured
as it was by the genius of the
great cOnquerOr of the Boyne. After
England, In 1888, rid herself of the Stuart
dynasty, and had called to her throne the
immortal William of Orange, Rome made
strenuous efforts to undo the noble work
which had been achieved for freedom. 1t
was In repelling these efforts and securing
the supremacy of Professionalism In the
British islands that William won his great
renown. The order also 1ourished at the
time Of the reformation, ia the sixteenth
century, and was used for the protection Of
Christian people from violence, oppression,
and wrongs so cruelty inflicted upon them
at that period by the truculent and bigoted
papists

PROSPECTS FOR 1888.

To calculate upon the probable success
of any political party in the future it is es
sential to take into consideration the
motives of the contestants. The causes
which bring victory to political parties are
more active or potent at particular periods
In their history. For instance the objects
and aims of the Greenback party were
more considered and attracted more people
to its support in the days Immediately pre-
ceding the resumption of specie payment
than ever after When the country was
experiencing business stagnation caused
by a contraction of the currency, many
people were led to believe the initiation the
cries of the Greenback party promised re-
lief. A party must stand for the interest
and sentiment of its followers to be per
manent When those interests are leopard
lied and the sentiments are aroused, party
win 90 forth to do courageous battle.
From this point of view the Republican
party was never in better condition
to achieve victory. Its interests are the in
terests of the people. And under the rule
of the. Republican party no country has
+ been more prosperous than ours. Its
dement's are those which enspire the
a.. of patriots in all lands The interest
me people are threatened by the free
ee hereseys of the Democratic party.
.ae laws which the Republican party have
enacted to protect American labor will be
swept from our statute books when the
Democratic party shall have gained control
Of congress. This threatened danger to
the peoples interests will again bring the
Republican party forward, and the recent
attempt of Democratic president to sur
render the flags captured upon hundred
battleields by the soldiers OF the Republic
viii arouse the patriotism of loyal people
everywhere. Aroused to action by these
sentiments and united no party has ever
been defeated in this country
The Democratic leaders are aware of this.
They already interpret the handwriting
upon the wall, and realizing the despera-
ton of their cause they are trying to be-
little loyalty and smother with ridicule the
fires of patriotism in the hearts of the peo-
pie. In its efforts in this line the Kansas
City Times says:
If the Democratic party, with Cleveland,
the conscientious, careful, conservative
man of business, at its head, goes in.G the
campaign with no stronger antagonist than
a party which stands only for the dull
embers of an extinguished fire, victory is
assured before the first gun is fired.
Victory for the Democrats depends upon
their ability to smother the fires of patriot
ism. They can not do that, hence victory
for the Republican party in 1888. What
the Democratic party consider 1.-The embers
Of an extinguished fire. will assuredly con-
sumo their chances for the presidency next
year.

The arrest of Johann Most the other
day is one of the most commendable acts
the New York police have ever perform
ed. Most is professional sgitator whose
entire life has been spent in melting his
dupes to murder and crime. He has been
spewed out of Germany and England and
now seeks to spread bis poison in this
country He has not even the advantage
of an attractive personality, such as dis.
tinguished Parsons and Spies. He is SIM
DIV a shock>headed, beer guzzling, dirty,
repulsive, cowardly brute-s perfect
model of an anarchist, in fact. His
cowarlice is shown by his behavior at
the time of the throwing of the Haymar-
ket bomb He sought safety in flight
and was finally pulled ANONYMOUSLY
from under the bed of a prostitute where
he had concealed himself. What posi-
ton for the leader of a great social revo-
lution His present arrest is based
upon some particularly blood-curdling
utterances of his on the night the
anarchists were executed in Chi
cago. As this is the second time that
he has been brought before the bar of
Justice in New York City. there is a
pleasing prospect that he'will receive the
heaviest penalty for his offence, which is
year and half in prison and fine.
These foreign scoundrels must be taught
that although this is land Of liberty il
is not land OF license.
It is a gratifying fact that both the
people ami the officers of the law are be-
coming awake to the danger of tolerating
the frenzied rawlings of the anarchists.
For years they delivered haIangues of the
most iucendary character. but they were
generally regarded with the most su
preme contemplated is by all but few
far-seeing men. who could perceive the
threatened danger But the Haymarke'
bomb awoke the American people from
their sense of fencied security. 1t laugh
them that these ours can bite as well a.
bark. Hereafter it is safe to say tina
there will be no such federation of til,
apostles of murder as has prevailed in tn,
past. The Johann Mosts must be laugh
that there is no room for them in thi
country outside the wallssof PRISON.
